The Relation Between Suicidal Ideation and Bullying Victimization in a National Sample of Transgender and Non-Transgender Adolescents
Abstract
Previous research has noted elevated rates of suicidal ideation and peer victimization among transgender populations. Data are lacking about how peer victimization relates to suicidal ideation for transgender youth, however; and whether any observed association is explained by psychosocial challenges (e.g., depressive symptomatology, social support) that many adolescent youth face. In this national online study of 5,542 youth 13–18 years of age, past-year rates of bullying were twice as high for transgender and gender non-conforming youth (44%–55%) compared to cisgender youth (i.e., youth whose gender identity is the same as the sex assigned to them at birth; 21%–25%). Rates of past-year generalized peer victimization were similar by gender identity however: 37%–42% of transgender and gender non-conforming youth were victims, as were 42%–43% of cisgender youth. Elevated rates of suicidal ideation noted among transgender youth were largely explained by peer victimization and concurrent psychosocial problems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
